As a best practice, I would recommend creating custom field types beforecreating custom data entry forms. IMHO, custom data entry forms should bea last resort because you take away the advantages of using SharePoint fordata entry.

I have not tested it beyond installing it and quickly looking at it,and I wouldn't rely on it as an absolute security mechanism, but itmay be sufficient for your needs. It avoids the need to touch theforms, and doesn't require any coding to implement.

The same author also has a project that lets you assign accesspermissions to views and default views on a list to different groups:

In this case i would create a event handler and on ItemUpdating andItemAdding and in those events i would check if the person is updating thefield or adding the field belongs to certain group.if he belongs then allowhim to update else deny.
